Mages won\'t melee attack?
 
I'm trying to cast Phoenix Pyre on some Mages of mine and then sic them on the enemy. I set their orders to 'Communion Slave' then 'Attack Closest'. I then have two masters chain buff them with Personal Luck, Fire Shield, etc. All that goes smoothly, except my mages never actually ATTACK anything. They just stand there.

What gives? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Communion slaves won't act when their masters are casting.
Having the masters attack as well should work. Having them retreat can also work.

This seems very strange as I did that with pythium (phoenix pyre ect) and my communicants moved fine.

Completely OT, I apologize, but that sucker just killed my L50 priest, so I couldn't resist.

What game? Looks like one of those Angband clones to me.
